Grip frame is stainless............and I thought I had read somewhere about the possibility of some of these being built similar to the Arizona Ranger Commemorative that was built at one time.
Maybe somebody just liked the "Ranger" pistol and did this one to look like it.
Of course the guy I got it from said it was "factory" but I know better than to always believe that.........lol
Either way, I like the two tone with the stainless frame. Makes a nice looking gun.
After now looking at it MUCH closer.........this frame is fit PERFECTLY. So either somebody spent a good amount of time on it, found a stainless frame that fit perfectly(doubtful) of paid a Smith to do it. Like I said, I am in it right, so maybe I just have a nice custom pistol. Trigger is really sweet too..........so likely somebody had it built.
